[DUG] How to make secure MySQL

[Ross Levis]

I see Site5.com uses Comodo for their own website so they probably don’t use Let’s Encrypt for their customers.  I don’t think a green bar certificate is possible using Lets Encrypt.

 

I implemented Let’s Encrypt for our own dedicated Windows Server (IIS website) just last week and it works very well, updates automatically every 2 or 3 months.

Hi Jeremy

 

Sorry for the somewhat late reply. Do you mean you do have Let’s Encrypt with Site5 for free?

I’m with site5 as well. Is that 39/year? 

 

If they integrated with let’s encrypt it would be free!

Hi all

 

I found out some interesting information re SSL Certification. My host (Site5.com) has an add-on (for only US$39) which provides SSL. In a chat they confirmed that just installing it (done by them) would make my website an SSL including a green bar.

I really still can’t believe that it is that simple.

Can anybody confirm that it is really that simple?

Thanks

Hi all

 

Thanks very much for your replies. I’ll look into all these options. I found some interesting bedtime reading about this at https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/encrypted-connections.html

Hi all

 

Can anybody give me some pointers and/or examples of how to make my web app – using MySQL – secure. At the moment I’m just transferring the bare passwords across, not a good idea I guess.

Secondly, once logged in, a session variable determines a logged in status – safe enough?

 

Thanks for any reply.

John C
